Second Cropping Winter Potatoes
As the summer season is now in full swing and the whether is beginning to brighten up it is now time to consider sowing and planting winter vegetables.
Second cropping potatoes are one of my favorite vegetables to grow over winter. By planting these special cold stored potatoes outdoors in August will ensure that you can harvest fresh potatoes from October to Christmas.
Please Note – You should not plant potatoes from the supermarket or saved from spring’s plantings. Special cold store seed potatoes should be bought from a reputable seeds supplier.
Back to the point, second cropping potatoes should be planted in the same way as main crop potatoes but just planted and harvested at a different time.
They are really simple to grow in my past experience, you may need to protect the potatoes if you live in a really cold area but that is all the care they really need.
I highly recommend that you try growing a few pots of second cropping potatoes!
